How this automation works

Append Smartsheet search matches to a Google Sheets spreadsheet for quick logging. When the Camera widget scans a QR code, the Applet asks Smartsheet to search using the scanned text and appends any matching row summaries and links to your Google Sheets file. Ideal for tracking receipts, links, or scanned references — use Smartsheet and Google Sheets to centralize matched rows for review.
